Her Kickball Days are Over

She's never been very graceful, so when Felicia twisted her ankle racing Madelyn to the door last week, we weren't surprised. She hobbled around for a couple of days, but soon she was walking and running like her old self. That is until, a game of kickball took her down again. This time, a trip to the ER was in order.

It was the first time she had ever been to the ER, or to the doctor for any other reason but a well visit, for that matter. A little nervous going in, however, the butterflies went away quickly when they wheeled her into x-ray and she recognized the song playing. It was Ozzy Osbourne, Crazy train. A familiar tune played by big brother Brandon. all. the. time. It put a smile on her face.

After a while the doctor came back and gave her the bad news, a broken bone in her foot. She's in a splint for now and trying to master crutches. A follow-up appointment for ortho in a week and we'll know more. Oh and by the way, don't let that last picture fool you, she wasn't all that upset, just a good actress!
